I have the gateway Gateway 22" Widescreen HD LCD 2275, and It doesent come with any speakers.

Everything else you explained to me somewhat confuses me, since im not big into audio cards and such. Anyway, If i purchase that moniter with the optional speakerbar, and connect my PS2 with component wires for the moniter, will i be able to get audio out of the speaker bar?

Otherwise im going to see if there is such a thing as speakers that come directly with the ps2, so I can switch it on and off
